Most Dissapointing Pokemon You Have Used From The 5th Generation

[PopPrincess_Lyra]

Probably Emolga. Can't fly, nya~

[Pilpulp]

I was smart, I had Leavanny, Chandelure, Excadrill, Samurott, Simisear & Hydreigon. Best team EVAR :3 I didn't run into any bad pokemon.
No one can say scrafty is bad.
People can say liepard is bad.

Zebstrika- I thought backing up speed would be some power, but it's power isn't very strong...

Musharna- I expected it to be quite strong, but it's upside was only Sp.Def

Simipour- My monkey helped against Chili, but from then I used it till Nimbasa, It lost, I won that gym, went to driftveil and it was level 38, and it lost to a Drilbur! It was ditched from then on!

[Necro101]

My most disappointing Pokemon was Yamask. Cogigrigus is a good but Yamask is a pain to level up and train. I though he would be a good Pokemon for my ghost mono in White2... Instead I had to train a Pokemon who died in two hit KO. With that said, I put an exp share on it until it evolved (lv 34).

RAWK ON

[Zincy]

On my first playthrough I used Simisear and Unfezant. Simisear is the worst out of the 3 and Unfezant can't do crap.

I'm not sure about Unfezant but Simisear is a great pokemon! It may have been that you evolved Pansear a bit to early but Simisear comes in handy once you get Flamethrower, but before i had that i taught him fire blast and he was still a great pokemon! But the bad thing is that Pansear starts with Incinerate, God that sucks.

Swoobat. I thought it would be my star pokemon in the pokemon league but it always died in one hit :/

This is why you don't keep Pokemon you can catch early in the game :/

Eh I have a Leavanny and Simisear both caught early and they rock so this isn't true.

[Fullcringe]

For me, Cryogonal was the most disappointing member on my fifth gen breakthroughs.

Yeah, pretty much because if he takes the weakest of a physical move, he's done.
Otherwise he might be somewhat useable.

No, its Defense is a let down, but it has a very respectable 95 SpA, 105 Spe, and 135 SpD.

Honchkrow currently. It barely helps with my weaknesses and is usually first to faint.

[AbFabTrainerKira]

Samurott in Black 2. I didn't want to use Emboar again, since I used it in White, and I hadn't heard many good things about the Snivy line as actual party members, but it turns out Ol' Sammy isn't that good either. Maybe if he had more Ice-type moves (and a more diverse moveset in general), I'd get more use out of him. Alas, my Fire-type Starter preference is proven right once again.

I actually liked Samurott I am using one in my white playthrough and its epic,but I usually choose Emboar and in white 2 he was on my team he was a major let down couldn't outspeed anything.

I see Emboar as a tank. Who needs speed when you have attack and defence that will wreck everything? ^_^

[azeem40]

I trained my Emboar in Speed, Atk and SpA. It outspeeds most base 90s.

[FILIP22]

I thought Scolipede would be somewhat cool to use because he looks bad ***, but he's weak as hell. Very disappointing.

[Dragoniteftw]

All the starters in 5th gen were generally not great.

serperior can't hit
emboar is too slow
samurott is too slow

[Moonlight_Tails]

Biggest let down of Gen 5? Archen/Archaeops

[-Umbreon-Latias-]

Carracosta -.- all mine did was faint and never kill anything <.< it got replaced with a Jellicent..best decision ever.

[munchlaxguy]

Cinccino thought it was going to be a solid normal type started to KO nothing replaced it with Beartic.

[~BrightStarVictory~]

Samurott. His stats were too even...I could get him to do anything but...none of his stats were particularly good...so...:<

[char char]

I was all excited to use Galvantula, not only because of its unique typing but its design was amazing.
I quickly discovered how useless it was aside from it's speed. None of its attacks were very good and overall, it was just a let down.

[Hudsonn98]

For sure Jellicent...it blows.

[CapnObvious123]

Yeah, I was really excited by Golurk's typing and how cool it looked before I knew anything about it. Then I saw its speed stat.
